Dreams of Empire: The Wars of South India 1730s-1740s
Hex-and-counter operational wargame set in South India during the 1730s and 1740s. Players command armies and columns in conflicts including the Travancore-Dutch War, the Canarese invasion of Northern Malabar, the Madurai Succession Wars, and the kingdom-building campaigns of Muslim adventurers. Brigade-sized units operate across maps at two scales, with specialists such as pioneers, elephants, and assassins assigned for specific missions. Turns represent three weeks, and scenarios cover periods of one to ten years.
